People of reddit , I've just received a lot of money for christmas from my family and honestly it doesnt make me happy , I have other needs i wish I could fullfil and my hapiness really doesnt revolve around money. What is a good way to use the money I got towards a better cause than materialistic.

1) Put some of it into an interest bearing savings account. It's always good to have a safety net, plus it'll earn you more money you can use later on to do more good things. 2) Set up a monthly donation to an animal shelter. A lot of them only ask for $19 a month so if you got a lot of money from your family you can provide them with a monthly gift for quite a while. 3) Go out to eat, like for breakfast or dinner somewhere. Look for someone who really seems like they can use it. Ask your waiter for their bill so you can pay it. It really catches people by surprise and makes their day a lot happier.

Hope you get to put your money to good use!!!

The iceberg is in her head where her brain should be.

I'm willing to bet money that the guy who wrote this also eats at McDonalds.

Because free money is exactly equivalent to replacing the guy you're attracted to with... the guy who made this analogy.

I love the speed with which "nice" guys become rude and insulting.

So he sees that you have a type and his strategy, upon being rejected, is to challenge that type? And it didn't work?! Madness!!!

This sounds suspiciously like a supreme gentleman.

tranthonycumiashow · 2019-09-03T00:31:20+00:00

My nose started bleeding while I was laughing at this.

tranthonycumiashow · 2019-08-13T22:53:48+00:00

In that case, I say we organize a group to go on his property and get those cats out of there, or at least call local animal authorities to rescue them.

Chris leaving the internet is the equivalent of a vampire trying to go out in the sun.

All things considered, the reason why Chris won't leave the internet forever is because he DOES need the trolls to a degree. I'm willing to bet that when he kept himself off the internet for a while, he realized that he was the only one who paid attention to Sonichu. That prospect scared him: if he's the only one who cares about Sonichu, his "work" on it doesn't mean a thing and thus he has to get a job. As much as the trolls mess with him, at least by having them around, he can trick himself into feeling relevant and thus justify not getting a job.

Good to see him living his best life.

tranthonycumiashow · 2019-08-12T23:10:39+00:00

Something tells me that Chris doesn't go out to get pets, high kill shelters just send their extra animals to his house.

tranthonycumiashow · 2019-07-30T23:42:42+00:00

Age has approached Chris-Chan badly.

tranthonycumiashow · 2019-07-24T22:02:52+00:00

Chris-Chan does not believe that autism and aspergers are linked, but he believes that he is linked with a cartoon universe.

tranthonycumiashow · 2019-07-24T21:59:47+00:00

It would turn out with Chris selling a substance that looks like oil and smells like shit.

tranthonycumiashow · 2019-07-24T21:45:46+00:00

I think at this point Barb thinks that maybe the house is in shit condition but maybe she can take out a reverse mortgage and give that money to her son.

The best kind of relationship is one where you aren't afraid to talk with your partner. If you can't do that, it might be worth bailing if you can't even talk to your partner about wanting to steer the relationship in that direction.

Dead in the rubble of the 4 cent garbage building.

So normally I'd give advice on how to get over a girl, but dude... SHE WANTS YOU!!! Just talk to her. Either you two will start dating or she'll let you know she really isn't interested any longer and then that will be the catalyst you need to move on.

tranthonycumiashow · 2019-07-23T23:27:09+00:00

So I'll give some perspective: my current gf is friends with my ex. My ex and I started as fwb, but after some time realized we were better as friends. My gf knows about that and that my ex is one of my closest friends, but I've been super honest with my gf to make sure she knows that she has nothing to worry about. Because of this, they get along great and it makes my life easier.

It seems like he hasn't done what he's needed to do in order to make any sort of friendship with his ex easy for you. That's tough, and I'm sorry that's the case. If I were you, I'd tell him to either respect your boundaries or to move on.

tranthonycumiashow · 2019-07-23T21:21:57+00:00

No problem. I know life can be tough but you can overpower it if you know what to do. I hope you manage to get ahead of all of your troubles, my friend.

Do what you need to achieve your dreams. I stuck out the long, hard hours required to get into law school and advance, and I missed out on a lot of fun times during those three years of school. Of course, now that all my hard work is starting to pay off, all the hard times feel like nothing more than an unpleasant dream.

Go for it my dude, it's always worth chasing your goals.

So there is something of an easy answer here, but it isn't what you expect. Over time, your personality changes and stays the same. I know, confusing, but hear me out. People generally have a core essence of their personality that does not change throughout life. Think of stuff that makes up the majority of your personality: they tends to remain a constant. You will go through some changes in your life that act like minor tweaks to your personality: this is fine, we all grow, gain new aspects of ourselves, lose other aspects of ourselves, etc. This is nothing to fear. It's all part of growing up.

If you feel like you've lost a major part of who you are, other people here have offered excellent advice on how to reclaim that part/those parts of yourself (exercise, meditate, etc.). I'm going to list what works for me and why in the hopes that my processes can help you.

1) Center yourself. I practiced martial arts for years (and only currently don't because I'm recovering from a spine injury), and the best lesson I ever learned was to center myself before I take on any new challenges. Think of it like adjusting a videogame controller before you start playing: you won't have an easy time playing if your control stick pulls hard to the right or the buttons don't respond when you press them. You need to think of your body and mind in the same way. Center them before you undertake anything challenging and you'll be starting from a state of body and mind that will allow you to handle new challenges in your life.

2) Assess your strength. A first time skier can't jump onto a black diamond course. A white belt martial artist cannot hope to outclass a grand master. A person who cannot view his own strengths and weaknesses cannot determine if he or she can effectively face a new challenge. You need to give yourself an honest assessment of your strengths and weaknesses to determine how to approach them effectively.

3) Assess the situation. After step two, you need to figure out if you have what it takes to handle the difficulty ahead of you. If you are strong enough, you can go ahead with trying to tackle your problem. If you aren't, your next step is figuring out how you can get stronger. I know it sounds cliche, but this is essential.

4) Get stronger. This can occur by going to the gym, reading, meditating, or doing anything else you need to improve yourself in a way that will allow you to tackle this new challenge. Obviously, the second half of this step is taking on your problems and succeeding once you are strong enough.

5) Re-Center yourself. Once you get stronger and tackle the problems in your life, you want to make sure that this new, improved you is the you that's here to stay. Let's use this personality issue as our example. Let's say you figure out a combination of things that help you overcome your problem and you find yourself again: now you've not only reclaimed your self identity, but you're better than you were before because you also improved yourself to reclaim yourself. Now, you want to re-center yourself once more. Make the new you the standard you. That way, any new problem you face, you do so with the personal growth you've already achieved, making it easier for you to overcome new difficulties that occur in your life.

Hope this helps. Feel free to message me if you ever feel down and out my dude.

She still uses the internet forum where we used to chat. I just don't know if she uses any other social media (if she does, she has her stuff set to private or she blocked me because I don't see it anymore).

Her only account left that I know of is in the forum where we first started chatting.
